About Nicole

  • An avid gardener and member of the Central Okanagan Community Gardens Society
  • Currently dreaming of owning a goat farm.

I design because it is simply a part of who I am. I have been a designer of some kind my entire career life. I consider myself to be a multiplayer designer which is a term I coined up to describe myself. It means I’m a designer who creates digital media, websites, brands and focuses on UI/UX as my specialty.

Working with user patterns, colour theory, human interaction and spotting design fads are a few parts of why I love what I do.

Favourite Things

Outside of work, you’ll find Nicole training for her first triathlon, spending time with her family, watering her plants and looking for the next rare Michael Jackson collectable. A born to be thrift store shopper and accordion player, she’s really into nostalgic collectibles and playing music to kindle some new inspiration for her design work.
